8 THINGS No One Tells You About STUDYING IN AUSTRALIA | Watch This Before You Study in Australia!

do you know more than 700,000 International students are studying in Australia as of 2023 if you get an admission does not guarantee that you will get a Visa since it's so expensive it is not possible to earn that money with working just part-time or 20 hours a week getting an Australian degree does not mean you will get a PR Australia is one of the Top Choice ofof countries for international students to pursue higher education and I also chose the landown under to pursue my postgraduation if you're new here then I'm aanga and I moved to Australia 2017 studied and worked there for 5 years and then moved to Canada in 2022 and today I'm going to share some things that I wish I had known before applying for studying in Australia and this is something that every single student who is going to pursue higher education in Australia should know a lot of Education Consultants hide these things but I want to put it out there so you can make an informed decision about whether studying in Australia is the right choice for you or not and this is what's next a where I share everything about traveling on a budget living in Canada my experiences in Australia and everything else that I try in life also also before we start the video I want to tell you something that I am not an immigration agent I am not qualified to give any kind of immigration related advises I am not that person I'm just sharing these things out of my experience these are the things that I experienced personally and all the knowledge I gained personally which is what I'm putting down in this video I'm not an agent okay first things first people confuse admission and Visa if you get an admission does not guarantee that you will get a Visa there are different processes once you get an admission in a university or college mostly University that is one part whether or not you get a Visa is a second part and a whole different story admissions are provided by universities and visas are provided by Department of Home Affairs in Australia and neither agents education consultant or universities have any say in whether or not Department of Home Affairs will grant you a positive outcome to your student visa application so it's very important to understand that if someone is saying that they'll get you the uh admission and then you will get the visa guaranteed there's no guarantee no one can guarantee you that it's a whole different process to different departments and also the application for an admission and the application for a Visa two different things completely so once you have got an admission that is like a basis on which you apply the student visa you can't apply for a student visa before you get an admission so yeah remember all these things when you are getting getting into it one thing that is a big surprise to people who have just come to Australia and who are recently starting to study is the fact that Australian uh study pattern is very different very different from what we are used to back in India or Pakistan or Bangladesh or like any other South Asian country when I was studying in MC University I had to go through a lot of change in the study pattern and I was so confused uh I think it took me about 6 months to get used to the new study pattern even the lectures we had attended they were not like you have to take notes and stuff they were like very Interactive and very explanatory there were like book reviews and journal reviews all of these things which were very different but very amazing and interesting so be prepared for these kind of changes to happen because the study pattern is very different in Australia one thing I want to uh point out that a lot of people think they will be able to do but is practically not possible is getting your tution fee arranged while studying in Australia uh Australian tution fee is very high sometimes it can be around $20,000 a semester or $225,000 a semester I started off with paying $14,000 a semester that is 6 months one semester and it went all the way up to $188,600 by the end of it uh and my partner paid even more for his studies and tution fees has also risen in the past few years so it's very uh important to remember that since it's so expensive it is not possible to earn that money with working just parttime or 20 hours a week because the amount you have to earn for the tution fee and the cost of living it's not going to be enough and while you're here why don't you hit the Subscribe button and give me a thumbs up if you think the video is helpful and useful and I would be very very grateful very happy if you do that it helps me grow and bring this video out to other people who are also wanting to study and get more knowledge about studying in Australia so it would be really amazing if you do that getting a post study work permit after finishing a course is not not a guarantee again it's not like an obligation for the government to provide you that when you finish your course you are eligible to apply for 485 post study work visa graduate Visa only if your course is 2 years or more it is crackoss registered you finish the course in time and uh you are not like flunking anything and you have like that bachelor's degree or master's degree in hand that is when you get to apply for the four at five post study work visa and acceptance or rejection is again dependent on on the department of Home Affairs and on the case officer it's not a guarantee that you will get it so please remember these things please get your head cleared that you don't get it you have to apply for it and then a decision is made based on your case and in the same topic I want to stress that your course should be cryos registered c r iOS so when you're studying for a course or looking for courses just make sure you have this cryos code in there because if not then you will not be able to apply for the 45 uh spos thaty work Visa now you have finished your studies you have gotten your degree now this is how you get permanent residency right is that what you're thinking wrong getting an Australian degree does not mean you will get a PR getting an Australian degree is just a first step towards uh permanent residency if you want to apply for it again if you are eligible for it it is one of the few steps that make you eligible also just like an Australian degree does not give you much of a leverage you just get five extra points for studying in Australia once you get a degree if you want to apply for permanent residency you need to get it assessed by the relevant Authority there are a lot of different skills assessing authorities in Australia if you want to use your degree towards your per residency doesn't matter if it's Australian or foreign you have to get it assessed and they will deem whether it's relevant to the occupation you're applying towards or not okay to explain this better let me take a few steps back um you have completed your degree now you want to apply for permanent residency you can't really just apply for it based on your uh education what you need to do is you go into the skills occupation list and see whether the education qualifications that you have and the work experience that you have matches with any of the occupations in the skilled occupation list for example I work as a marketing specialist right that is my occupation I go into the skills occupation list and see what are the occupations available for a marketing specialist to apply for PR there is marketing specialist role available so now to apply for this role I need to have a degree and relevant work experience so now here's where it all comes even if I have an Australian degree I need to submit that degree to wet assess who is the skills assessing body and they will assess my degree and my work experience and see whether it fits the job description of marketing specialist in their list making sense I know it's pretty complicated that's why like I spent so many years learning about it but once vet assess assesses my skills based on my education and my work experience they give me a positive positive assessment if they think that my degree is relevant what I've studied is relevant but my work experience is not relevant they will not give me a positive assessment and if they think that my degree is not relevant versus my work experience is relevant I might not get a positive assessment either there are a few different ways you can get a positive assessment but only if you get a positive assessment is when you can go and apply for permanent resident deny in Australia and create your expression of interest that was a lot okay so does it make sense that getting a degree does not mean you can straight up go and create a profile log your expression of interest and one thing to remember does not matter what you have studied what occupation is in demand you can only apply for Forman residency based on the occupations that are in the skilled occupation list so when you go into the skill occupation list check for an occupation and see what visas is it open for so some occupations may only be open for certain types of visas and not everything so you have to just like cross check if the Visa that you are going to apply for is actually accepting that occupation or not or if you have an occupation which is not even in the list like what I had studied was uh forensic science forensic science is not in the list so I can't really go and apply for uh permit residency based on what I have studied also just an fii getting an Australian degree does not mean that the skills assessing Authority will positively assess it it has happened with me multiple times I got negative assessments because like certain things were not falling in place and not were not relevant I was talking to a friend a few days ago and he said that the agent he's talking to about studying in Australia he said that you can finish your studies get your work permit and then you get your PR it's as easy as that and it is not as easy as that let me make that clear per residency depends on a lot of factors including age your aisle score your degree your work experience your spouse a lot of different things and no one can guarantee you permanent residency in Australia ask me I have tried for 5 years and I did not get it there are a lot of different factors and a lot of different people trying to misguide you just for their own benefit so my advice would be to go and do your research if your end goal is for and residency find out how to get it find out what are the ways find out the study pathway the work pathway the direct pathway and then go for it I mean just don't listen to random people random agents because their motive is just to get business from you um they won't even bother talking to you once they getting your admission and everything because that's where they get their commission from um permanent residency is not guaranteed no one can guarantee you that and you have to work towards it you have to be eligible towards it and once you are eligible you apply for expression of interest if your expression of interest is picked up by the department of Home Affairs you get an invite when you get an invite you apply your documents get checked and that is when you get a grant not before not after so remember these steps it's very complicated I know but I hope I am able to like explain this in the most simple way possible and I hope you're understanding if you have any questions put them in the comment section because I know I fumble a lot and I mix up a lot of things so if you have specific questions put them there I'll answer them okay the last thing that I want to tell you all is that in demand occupations do not mean a pathway to PR in demand jobs like AI forensics a few different very niched fields that are very up and cominging in these days specifically AR artificial intelligence does not provide a pathway to PR also MBA does not provide an easy Pathway to PR in Australia it is possible that these fields are very up and coming are very much relevant in the industry but if they are not in the occupation list you can't get a PR there's no Pathway to PR for that like I studied intelligence counterterrorism and uh policing and there is a lot of demand for this job it's a very dense role it's very um it's very useful it's very like in this time it's very required but these occupations are not available in the skilled occupations list so I could not apply for PR so remember that if you're applying for a course that's very different from what's in the occupation list if there's nothing relevant to your from your course and your work experience in to the jobs that are available in the list you can't really do anything and you can't apply for Perman residency in Australia it's very important to understand the difference between in demand jobs versus skilled occup incubation list jobs okay so these were the few different things that I thought you should know if you're applying for studying in Australia I was a student there myself I did not know these things I was like the least guided person over there and uh I figured these things out as I went but I think by the time I figured out it was too late uh so that is why I'm relaying all of this information to you so you get to know all these things beforehand and you prepare yourself for your study life in Australia in a better way than I did uh and if you like this video if you found

know I mean I don't want to give out wrong information so if you have any other questions that are related to my experience put them there I'll definitely answer I try and answer everything in the most timely manner possible I might slack some sometimes times but uh bear with me I have lots to do and I hope you got a lot of information and I hope this video was useful I'll see you next week
